    Amazing movie with superb climax!

    A wonderful political thriller with some great performances from Suraj Venjaramoodu, Dhyan Sreenivasan and Manoj K Jayan. Suraj as a political leader has excelled in the movie and proves yet again why he is regarded as a brilliant actor in the Malayalam film industry.

    The cast is superb and the story revolves around a game played by the politician relating it with the football legend Higuita.

    A well written story that brings out emotions in the glowingly benign views of human nature. Great scenes within the excellent locations of Alleppey and Kannur are shot very well with some thumping background scores and music in support. Unexpected twists and a great climax in the end makes it a must watch movie. Go for it in theaters now!

    This movie can't get an overall rating above 5

    When I'm rating this movie, the overall rating of the movie is 7.2. After watching a few clips on YouTube and surfing on the internet to know the IMDb rating, decided to watch the movie, but the movie was quite depressing that the movie is full of lags and very poor directing. May be the script seems to be ok, but really hated the direction.

    About the acting. There is nothing special or something new in the acting of the lead Suraj Veranjamood. And before getting into the main content, the comedy which was tried to be done for the intro of Dhyan Sreenivasan was really boring. Overall the movie never deserves a rating above 5.

    Could have been made better

    Good script but very bad acting. Especially Mr Sreenivasan is a way over acting. Also the movie targeting a specific political party , the context of the movie is not really convincing and the sequences are not well aligned. Other actors also exaggerating the situation.

    But the theme and the storyline is good, especially the second half of the movie is moving little fast and aligned. It seemed that some incidents and songs are placed out of context. I did not understand how the initial murders aligned to the storyline . Over all this movie is worth watching and you might enjoy the second half but could have made it better .

    Excellent script

    Higuita" is a political thriller that tells the story of a political leader in a unique way. The movie successfully maintains the suspense throughout and delivers a well-handled climax. One of the best aspects of the film is its portrayal of the leader, Mukundan. Unlike typical movies, "Higuita" does not depict Mukundan as either entirely good or entirely bad, but rather offers a more nuanced and complex portrayal of the character.

    The casting in "Higuita" was spot on, with all the actors delivering impressive performances that did justice to their roles. Shyam Sreenivasan, in particular, demonstrated his ability to handle serious roles with ease. Suraksha, meanwhile, delivered yet another remarkable performance, as she always does.

    While the second half of the movie did experience a slight lag, the powerful and exciting climax more than made up for it, leaving the audience on the edge of their seats.

    • Trivia
      Left-wing firebrand leader Pannyannoor Mukundhan forged in the crucible of left-wing politics of Malabar, always facing threats of violence and even murder. Ayyapa Das recently joined in the police and is assigned as his gunman. Das's father was a civil police officer, who passed away while still in service. Impending financial disaster for the family forces Das to take up this responsibility and go for a police job. Higuita is a tale of contradicting individuals working close to each other and the inherent conflict of the situation.
